The Greater Essex County District School Board recognizes the importance of effective, open, two-way communication.

It is a priority of the GECDSB to engage parents, caregivers, families, students, staff and all groups and individuals with an interest in public education as active partners. Children learn more successfully when there is strong community support and belief in the schools’ ability to achieve excellence. We must, therefore, be willing and able to share the goals and successes of the Board with many audiences.

As a public organization, the GECDSB is responsible for informing taxpayers that it is efficiently using its allocated resources. This obligates us to maintain an open dialogue with all members of the community and provide transparency to the conduct of our operation.
